Guardz expands cybersecurity reach with EMEA partnership

Guardz has announced its expansion across the Europe, Middle East, and Africa (EMEA) region to provide small businesses with comprehensive cybersecurity solutions through partnerships with Managed Service Providers (MSPs).

Small businesses, which constitute 99% of all EU businesses, face significant risks such as service disruption, reputational damage, and revenue loss due to cyber-attacks. Many small businesses lack the resources to manage cybersecurity challenges themselves, often turning to MSPs for support. Guardz, recognising this need, has partnered with Infinigate Cloud to deliver its security platforms to MSPs across EMEA, helping secure this essential part of the economy.

Infinigate Cloud, known for its expertise in secure cloud solutions, will facilitate the integration of Guardz's platform into its network. This partnership aims to make Guardz's solutions accessible to a broader range of MSPs, enabling these providers to enhance the cybersecurity of small businesses.

MSPs in the region will benefit from Guardz's various initiatives, including the Growth Hub, which aims to enhance business conversions and success, and the Community Shield plan, which helps improve the cybersecurity stance of MSPs themselves. These efforts are complemented by strategic hires in the region, including a regional director in the UK where Guardz is establishing a physical presence.

"SMBs are crucial to ensuring the security and smooth operation of services and infrastructure across EMEA and MSPs are a key piece of the puzzle. We are thrilled to be expanding to better protect these businesses through their valued MSP partners," said Dor Eisner, CEO and Co-Founder of Guardz. "We are also delighted to partner with Infinigate Cloud, combining our cybersecurity prowess with their 25+ years of experience and world-class solutions. We look forward to supporting the local MSP communities as we together fulfill our vision of making the digital world a more secure place for millions of small businesses and the people who rely on them."

The partnership with Infinigate Cloud will extend Guardz's reach through Infinigate's marketplace and enhance the capabilities available to MSPs through various support services, including technical training and professional marketing.

Denis Ferrand-Ajchenbaum, Chief Growth Officer at the Infinigate Group, remarked, "We are extremely honoured to have been chosen as primary Guardz value added distributor in EMEA, as it demonstrates that our unique role as Managed Security Services Distributor fits the go to market strategy of the next generation of cybersecurity vendors who are focusing on the MSP/MSSP segment. We look forward to generating new incremental growth for both Guardz and our 6,000 channel partners, leveraging Guardz's innovative cybersecurity platform, a great addition to the rapidly growing Infinigate Cloud portfolio of Managed Security Services."

Guardz's platform is designed expressly for MSPs, providing a comprehensive shield against continuously evolving threats across multiple vectors, including users, cloud applications, emails, and devices. It offers real-time monitoring and automated remediation, allowing MSPs to efficiently manage a larger client base while maintaining robust security measures.
